HEINZ RIEGLER - SLEEP HEALTH

Heinz Riegler investigates the sedative and therapeutic agents of sound on SLEEP HEALTH.

Responding to an extensive bout of insomnia, the 34 minute lullaby was recorded and mixed over a succession of nights during an extensive artist-in-residence stay in the Blackall Range, Australia. SLEEP HEALTH seeks to be a utility, a thing of tangible purpose. Initially intended solely as an audio sleeping pill, the recording took on the additional motif of a long distance medicinal instrument.
